This place is a film lover's dream. It's a beautiful, historic venue with big, comfortable seats and a selection of independent films playing year round. Small space but cozy, just like the good old days. The selection of movies is very nostalgic, a nice getaway from the mega theatres everywhere. Prices at the snack bar are reasonable

This European style cappuccino bar in Edmonton's cool-art-funk-party area is a welcome member of the neighbourhood. Bright and beautiful space with great espresso, tasty snacks, friendly staff. I also sometimes order food from the attached restaurant Under the High Wheel and they bring it to you in the cafe. The best place to grab a coffee after the farmer's market or a yoga class!

Tim Hortons
10365 111 St NWThis place is a jewel. Finally, I can have cake or a pastry that reminds me of a true French patisserie. The focus is on quality, not on size (which is a North American obsession). Each piece is made with love and shows great artistry in decorating. It is a young business, but it already has a crowd of enthusiastic customers, to which I belong. I love how they constantly come up with the delightful new ideas, different from anything else available in Edmonton.

I love that they cater to as many food allergies as they can! Vegan, gluten free and a peanut free shop makes life so much easier for my family because a lot of us have food intolerances.

Been buying my bread here for nearly two years. Great German bakery. Their doughnuts are fantastic and best rye bread in town.
Also, best place to get real baked pretzels. If you haven't been here, you're missing out.
